SSID name "Any"

In authentication rules for wireless access, you can specify the name any for the SSID. This value is a wildcard that
matches on any SSID string requested by the user.
For 802.1X and Web-based AAA rules that match on SSID any, WSS Software checks the RADIUS servers or local
database for the username (and password, if applicable) entered by the user. If the user information matches, WSS
Software grants access to the SSID requested by the user, regardless of which SSID name it is.
For MAC authentication rules that match on SSID any, WSS Software checks the RADIUS servers or local database for
the MAC address (and password, if applicable) of the user's device. If the address matches, WSS Software grants access
to the SSID requested by the user, regardless of which SSID name it is.

Last-resort processing

One of the fallthru authentication types you can set on a service profile or wired authentication port is last-resort.
If no 802.1X or MAC access rules are configured for a service profile's SSID, and the SSID's fallthru type is last-resort,
WSS Software allows users onto the SSID or port without prompting for a username or password. The default authoriza-
tion attributes set on the SSID are applied to the user. For example, if the vlan-name attribute on the service profile is set
to guest-vlan, last-resort users are placed in guest-vlan.
If no 802.1X or MAC access rules are configured for wired, and the wired authentication port's fallthru type is
last-resort, WSS Software allows users onto the port without prompting for a username or password. The authorization
attributes set on user last-resort-wired are applied to the user.
